Hollywood South rallies against tax credit cap

Group opposes Gov. Bobby Jindal's plan to limit tax credits

The group doesn’t understand why the governor wants to limit tax credits given out to the film industry.

Those in the movie industry say their very livelihood will be at stake under the governor's proposed change to film tax credits. They say if it is approved, that it could be a wrap for the movie industry in Louisiana.

That’s why dozens gathered hoping to flip the script on the governor’s proposal of a million-dollar salary cap for actors to qualify for the tax credit. Folks here say that would likely mean no more Hollywood A-listers and major motion pictures.
